"No Response" is a song written by Benny Andersson, first recorded by Swedish rock group Hep Stars and released as a single in September 1965. The song was written in response to criticism drawn from other Swedish beat groups, including Shanes and Tages for their inability to write own material.[2]
The song was the first original composition by Andersson,[3] who has later had a negative impression of it. "No Response" became a hit in Sweden, and was the third and final single issued from their debut album We and Our Cadillac.[4]
